Diego
Maradona, who shared the Fifa Player of the Century Award with Pele and has
traded barbs with his South American rival on numerous occasions, Pele and
Maradona war of words is second from the world greatest fight dubbed
"Thrilla in Mania" when the late Joe "Smoking Joe" Frazier
beat Muhammad Ali. Let’s get ready to rumble with Maradona and Pele.
Round 1: Pele and Maradona
Right
now, Barcelona is definitely the better team," affirmed Pele."But
Santos were considered the best in the world for a decade and Barcelona do not
have the titles that Santos have” Maradona went on to stir the pot further,
remarking that the Brazilian needed to make sure he was taking the right
medication before making any statements.
Round 2: Pele and Maradona
"Pele
has said he's the Beethoven of football,” he continued. “I've never heard any
Beethoven music in a match, so as I've told you before, anytime he takes the
wrong pill he comes up with a crazy statement. Pele may have taken the morning
pills at night time, so he should make sure he takes the right pills.” He
added: “In fact it would be better if he changed his doctor."
Round 3: Pele and Maradona
Maradona
said can't blame Pele; he hasn't been doing anything for the past 20 years. I
haven't even seen him in a supermarket. I don't know what he does.
"Usually, when you see him these days, it's only at award ceremonies next
to the president of Fifa and looking like a doll that's being moved by remote
control," he continued.
Round 4: Pele and Maradona
Maradona
has slammed Brazilian legend Pele and told him to “go back to the museum”.
Round 5: Pele on
Messi
When
Messi's scored 1,283 goals like me, when he's won three World Cups, we'll talk
about it,” said the former Santos forward. “People always ask me: 'When is the
new Pele going to be born?'. Never – my father and mother have closed the
factory.”
Round 6: Pele on
Spain Winning EURO 2012
Pele
declared that Spain's current squad (which won the Euro 2012 tournament) is
less than Brazil's squad that won the 1970 World Cup. The Santos and Brazilian
star went further and suggested that Spain has "two or three great
players" compared with Brazil in 1970. Pele later admitted that he enjoyed
watching the Spanish Euro 2012 squad play football.
Round 8: Neymar from
Brazil on Messi
Barcelona
striker Lionel Messi is world's best player says Santos striker Neymar ahead of
Club World Cup Brazilian star Neymar has admitted he could never reach Pele's
level and weighed into a row between the footballing legend and Diego Maradona,
saying Lionel Messi was the best in the world. He's the one and only, he's the
king of football," said Neymar, sporting his trademark blond mohawk.
"To reach his level is something I don't think I can do." Neymar has
been described as technically better than Messi by Pele, earning a mocking
response from Argentine great Maradona, who said the Brazilian must have mixed
up his medication.
Round 9: Pele got a
knockout punch from his country man Neymar
Honourable
Judge Owen Mundalamo Verdict
While
Pele continues to be one of the greatest players in football history, he risks
tarnishing his legacy with unnecessary comparisons and judgments. Whether he
will stop making them remains to be seen.
